On the way to the office this morning on the Slow-O-5 heading north when traffic abruptly stops and I see him coming.

He's trying to stop, swerves...BAM! Busts into my rear end pushing me into the car in front of me. The he takes off; crumpled up front end and all! The person I hit goes on the chase after him so I follow. He doesn't quite make the exit the culprit goes for but I do. So I get the license and then pull over. When I pull over another car pulls up behind me, a witness who followed as well. He gives me his card. I call the CHP and they send a car. He had spoken to the driver in front of me already and our stories matched.

The car that hit me had 4 or 5 guys in it, small corolla - way faded. Ridiculous to run...CHP was heading to their house. Not sure how that turned out but just stupid to run.

Man I'm stiff now...neck hurts...that's 3 times I've been rear ended in this car (4 total).

Prius' are pretty strong - looks like it just needs a bumper in the back. No damage to speak of in the front.
